*FeStIvAl* look

Well, it's that time of year!

Festivals are everywhere you go.

I recently just came back from Bonnaroo,

and the amazing Electric Forest started yesterday.

There are a million & a half things you'll see at festivals,

but all the bright/neon lights/colors are one of the first things I think of aside from the music.

As such, I decided to revisit my Sleek Acid palette & create a fun, festy look!

I used:

UD Primer Potion

Various Sleek Acid palette shadows

Covergirl Line Exact liquid eyeliner

Covergirl Clump Crusher mascara

The blending isn't quite as good as I would have liked,

but it's not too bad.

Either way, to me- it's fun and definitely something reminiscent to me of a festival!

:)

CG's 'Point me to the Party'

I have a lively, happy glitter for ya'll today.

After being at Bonnaroo this past week,

I'm all about some bright/happy/neon/hippie stuff.

Hence, I FINALLY watched 'Point me to the Party' from CG's Electric Nights collection.

I've swatched it over Essie's 'Muchi Muchi':

This reminds me strongly of a neon glitter that Polish Me Silly (previously Lush Lacquer) put out a couple years ago.

Consistency was great, and I actually did NOT have to fish for glitters- which was awesome!

I love it :)

Colourpop Cosmetics- Juicy

Today's post features my final lippie from the several that I bought recently.

I've shown you a matte toffee color & two other pinks.

Today's lippie is also pink, but it's more of a Barbie color than the medium & hot pink ones I've shown you before.

Here's 'Juicy'!

'Juicy' is a hyper gloss, described as "strawberry pink"...

which I again disagree with.

This just screams more of like a stereotypical Barbie-pink to me for some reason?

Regardless, it went on flawlessly, the color is perf, and it DOES look juicy! :P

GG's 'More to Explore'

This is the last polish I have from CG's Spring Roadtrip collection,

and it's a nice Summer polish, too. 

Here's 3 coats of 'More to Explore':

'More to Explore' is a bright, peach cream. The formal was 'eh', as was the formula for most of this collection. By the time they released Electric Nights, however, they made up for it.

Regardless, this is a beautiful, happy color that I love wearing on my short, messed up nail :P

Colourpop Cosmetics- Tootsie

I have another lippie for Colourpop Cosmetics for you.

So far, I've shown you guys mattes, satins, and hyper-glosses.

Today, I have another (& my preferred choice) matte for you!

Here's 'Tootsie':

'Tootise' is a "cool-toned grey-beige" in a matte finish.

This, at first, struck me as a Fall/winter shade...

but once I got it on, I could easily see wearing in the summer, too.

I loved it!

These mattes go on like butter and are super easy to apply.

Can't say enough good things about this company!

:)

Too Faced's Rock 'N Roll palette

So I've been seeing this palette from Too Faced pop up various places lately,

and when I saw the vibrant, metallic swatches- I knew I had to have it.

A week, eBay purchase, and $34 later- I got it!

The idea behind the palette was to provide shadows & instructions to create 3 separate looks, 

characterized as either Easy (top row), Classic (middle row), & Fashion (bottom row):

Time for swatches!

You can see there are a mix of metallics, satins, 1 matte, and glitters in this palette :)

The larger shadows I would use on the brow bone & inner corners:

Then you have the darker shadows for the lids/crease:

I cannot freaking wait to create some looks with these bad boys.

Have any of you tried this palette?

What are your thoughts?
